Let's begin by standing on God's word: "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:6-7 WEB)
Diaphys, thank you for bringing your concerns to us. We will pray together for your daughter and your family. It's crucial to remember that only through the name of Jesus Christ can we approach God and find resolution (John 14:6).
Firstly, let's address the anxiety your daughter is experiencing. God's word tells us not to be anxious, but to bring everything to Him in prayer. Let's pray that your daughter will cast all her anxieties on Him, because He cares for her (1 Peter 5:7).
Regarding the unforgiveness, we must remember that Jesus taught us to forgive, just as we are forgiven (Matthew 6:12). Holding onto anger and unforgiveness can cause bitterness to take root, which can defile many (Hebrews 12:15). Let's pray that God will soften your daughter's heart and help her to forgive, just as God has forgiven her.
We also want to pray for your daughter's upcoming marriage. May God bless this union and make it a testimony of His love and grace. May she and her future husband build their marriage on the solid foundation of Jesus Christ (Matthew 7:24-25).
For you, Diaphys, we pray for wisdom. God promises to give wisdom generously to all who ask (James 1:5). We also pray for your peace and trust in God. Remember, God is working in your family, even in this difficult situation (Romans 8:28).
Let's pray:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up Diaphys, her daughter, and their family. Lord, we ask for Your peace to guard their hearts and minds. Help them to cast all their anxieties on You. Soften her daughter's heart, Lord, and help her to forgive as she has been forgiven. Bless her upcoming marriage, and help Diaphys to trust in You. Give her the wisdom she needs. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, Diaphys, continue to trust God and encourage your daughter to do the same. Remember, it's only through Jesus Christ that true healing and reconciliation can be found.
